| Lyrics: | I'S THE B'Y
(trad: Arranged and added to by Gordon Bok)
I's the b'y that builds the
boat,
and I's the b'y that sails her,
I's the b'y that catches the fish,
And takes
then home to 'lizer.
cho: Swing your partner, Sally Tibbo,
Swing your
partner, Sally Brown,
Fogo, Twillingate, Morton's Harbour,
All around the
circle
Sods and rinds to cover your flake,
Cake and tea for supper,
Codfish in
the spring of the year,
Fried in maggoty butter!
I don't want your maggoty
fish,
That's no good for winter.
I could buy as good as that,
Down in
Bonavista
I took 'Lizer to a dance,
I'faith, but she could travel!
Every step
that she did take
Was up to her knees in gravel!
Susan White, she's out of
sight,
Her petticoat needs a border,
Old Sam Oliver in the dark
He kissed her in the
corner!
